Border security bill: Surveillance drones, radar key parts of $...
There are 23 comments on the El Paso Times story from Apr 29, 2010, titled Border security bill: Surveillance drones, radar key parts of $.... In it, El Paso Times reports that:Sen. John Cornyn wants to take control of the border with Mexico by filling it with military technology like drones, radar and night-view cameras.
Join the discussion below, or Read more at El Paso Times.

If there are no jail, fines or deportation, then all you have is a continuing of the revolving door and the border guards engaged in cat and mouse games. Walls, drones the National Guard and thousands of agents cannot keep them out if there is no punishment for illegal entry. We have the laws on the books. Just enforce the law, jail, prosecute and deport them. Get a national identity card and require everyone to carry them. Fine the employers who hire undocumented workers--the law is already there in Section 274 of the I&N Act. Also enforce sections 212, 241 and 287 of the I&N Act. Forget about the gadgets and boondoggles designed only to fool the gullible and to bring earmarks and kickbacks to politicians.
United States
#2 Apr 29, 2010
More Big Lies.
Drones and "virtual fences" do not work.
Just ask Rick Perry.
Apo, AE
#3 Apr 29, 2010
throw in an electrical fence with extreemly high voltage hell make my taxes worth it baby
#4 Apr 29, 2010
How come our government hesitates in protecting our border with Mexico.
I now live in the East, Maryland, but grew up in El Paso and Anthony, NM-TEX.
Our government has not shown the cartels that we mean business when we tell them to stop their meanderings.
#5 Apr 29, 2010
All this fear - violence is terrible in Juarez and in all Mexican border states. Yet El Paso remains one of the safest cities in America. More $$, high tech gagets, and police/ military will not make things better.
We need to focus on the actual root causes and stop putting all the blame on Mexico and the un-documented workers.
The US needs to make a complete change in policy and priorities when it comes to the 'The Drug War'.
Money and resources need to be shifted away from strict 'Enforcement' type policies, to drug programs / or rehab type programs to reduce drug dependacy. The US demand for drugs is crazy and even if all drug supplies from Mexico ended today -the drugs will come from somewhere else.
We should do what Portugal did about 10 years ago.
Portugal de-criminalized all drugs (even cocaine and heroine). After years, drug use among Portugese was reduced slightly, drugs deaths dropped, HIV infections dropped, and most importantly other drug crime such as murders and petty theft dropped dramatically. Below are articles from CATO Institute (libetarian), Time Mag, and Scientific American - regarding Portugal's drug policy.
#6 Apr 29, 2010
Yeah lets spend $300 additional millions for something that is not happening in US soil.
Apo, AE
#7 Apr 29, 2010
hell no, lets use that money and build a 20 ft electic fence baby that will keep them out. and send all the illegals that are in jail to some other country like japan
#8 Apr 29, 2010
You know, its one thing to bring on a costly plan to help with the cartel problem in Juarez, its another to blow your horn so openly as some politicians seem to do. Now the cartels have been properly warned and will find another way to conduct business. Thats one thing about our so called free press and horn blowers! Blah, blah, blah. Didn't Geraldo Rivera get booted off a certain assignment for exposing news in Afghanistan?
#9 Apr 29, 2010
I say the fence is somewhat a waste of time and money. The illegals are getting in other ways obviously and so are the drugs. The problem is with our U.S. citizens' supply and demand!
#10 Apr 29, 2010
Sinaloa, once again.
Fences or any security system cannot stop intrusions if the person is determined. Security system are designed to delay intrusions, long enough to increase the probability of catching the inruder.
The camera system is flawed because of mechanical problems not because they are not effective. If you were sneaking into the US or any place, wouldnt you avoid the cameras or would you walk to them? They should fix the system.
Increased inspections in/out of the country would help. The greed on both sides is the problem.
#11 Apr 29, 2010
Until the US removes all the Mexican Nationals/Mexican loyalists Border Patrol/Custom Border Patrol agents working on the US side of the border and replace them with US Nationalists, illegal aliens and other undesirables will continue to pour in unabated.
#13 Apr 29, 2010
This is all well and good, but when is the government going to finish the fence???
#14 Apr 29, 2010
Also, how about enforcing the laws that punish employers for hiring the illegals, thus giving them the incentive to come here, breaking the law to enter illegally and do whatever they can to make a few dollars to send home (without paying taxes). The employers don't ask for work visas, and thus circumvent taxes. Enforce the laws!!!
#15 Apr 29, 2010
I wonder if the DRONE is going to come down and arrest anyone ..because in my experience unless you have boots on the ground to arrest someone, the film is only nice documentation of something we already know....we are being overrun.
#16 Apr 29, 2010
You can buy all the fancy electronic junk you want but you still have to have "boots on the ground" When a sensor goes off.
you can see all the people you want climbing the fence but you still need the Border Patrol to go get them.
Without more officers, all the electronics in the world won't stop the illegal entries, but it is cheaper to hire your daughters firm to put up cameras, than to hire more Border Patrole Officers.
#17 Apr 29, 2010
While this administration is concerned about being "Politically correct", the cartels, illegals and the rest of the world are laughing at us. Being nice is not going to work to solve our Border problems or our fight against Terroism around the globe. Remember how nice Carter was and where it got us? WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!
United States
#19 Apr 29, 2010
The completion of the fence must be a priority!
NOW the thugs just walk around the ends!
#20 Apr 29, 2010
20,000 MORE agents
Finished fence,
Technology deployed with ARMED drones.
The Border PAtrol MUST free themselves FROM POLITICIANS!
United States

its Time to kill the smugglers
United States
#22 Apr 29, 2010
I would not like to see a public execution. Seems gross but I do agree + add a bit of my own opinion whereas the U.S. is guilty of 'supply and demand' your right the smugglers should be executed for MURDER. The drugs are killing ppl but then the ppl have a taste for them and furthermore glamorized in the movies. So..........

Excellent 4.5 /5 from 80 reviews
Very comfortable rooms with flexibility available. Decent breakfast, pool, and Fitness Center.
The room was great for someone with a wheelchair. But none in our party was disabled or had a wheelchair. Why would they immediately assign us such a room? Nice hotel but disappointed with the staff.
Our daughter got married in Lancaster and I wanted a suite for our family to stay in so that we could spread out and be comfortable. The suite was clean, spacious, and although we didn't use the kitchen on this trip, we plan to come again and take advantage of all the features. It was our home away from home.
Tables in dining area too close together, staff did not keep up with silverware, I need to learn Spanish, eggs were terrible, refrigerator in room was loud, easily accessible to downtown.
Heavenly. Our "fortress of solitude" to get away from so many stressors. Room was spacious. Close to restaurants, fast food, and cheap gasoline.

American Drug War 2: Cannabis DestinyHD Closed Captioning
Kevin Booth
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download this movie.
About the Movie
From the frontlines of the battle to legalize marijuana comes "American Drug War 2: Cannabis Destiny." The November 2012 elections saw pot being fully legalized in two states. Meanwhile, thousands of Americans in places like Texas and Florida continue to be arrested. The film asks the question on every pot smokers' mind: what happens next? "American Drug War 2" has something for even the hardened pot activists and is already being revered as one of the most important marijuana documentaries to date. The film follows the traumatic story of a young boy named Cash Hyde who is repeatedly denied cannabis oil, the only medicine that appears to shrink his brain tumor. ADW2 also documents the saga of filmmaker Booth and his wife becoming foster parents and encountering the over prevalent use of pharmaceuticals on foster kids. These stories and much more underline the film's theme of children being the ultimate victims of American drug policy.
Customer Reviews
Best Documentary to Date
The Best Documentary on the subject to date, more people need to know about the Cash Hyde Story.

Can't wait for this movie!
Kevin Booth knows this subject front to back and always presents it in an entertaining fashion. If you're on the fence about the American 'war on drugs', buy the first American Drug War movie, and then see the second in the series.

Impressive. . . . A dark, unsettling story. New York Times Book Review
There's more than blood and bone beneath the skin. . . .
The victim, a nondescript number cruncher, was murdered just yards away from his wife and daughter. And the crime scene is one that could chill the blood of even the most seasoned police officer.
But the strange revelations about an ordinary accountant's extraordinary secret life are what truly mystify Chief Inspector Alan Banks. Lies breed further deceptions and blood begets blood . . . and all the while a killer watches, hidden in plain sight.
Twisty, suspenseful, and thoroughly riveting, Final Account is one of Peter Robinson's best thrillers.
Inspector Banks is a man for all seasons. Michael Connelly
Peter Robinson is a master. Tess Gerritsen.

We prove the following about the Nearest Lattice Vector Problem (in any lp norm), the Nearest Code-word Problem for binary codes, the problem of learning a halfspace in the presence of errors, and some other problems. 1. Approximating the optimum within any constant factor is NP-hard. 2. If for some ε>0 there exists a polynomial time algorithm that approximates the optimum within a factor of 2log(0.5-ε) n then NP is in quasi-polynomial deterministic time: NP⊆DTIME(npoly(log n)). Moreover, we show that result 2 also holds for the Shortest Lattice Vector Problem in the l∞ norm. Improving the factor 2log(0.5-ε) n to √(dim) for either of the lattice problems would imply the hardness of the Shortest Vector Problem in l2 norm; an old open problem. Our proofs use reductions from few-prover, one-round interactive proof systems, either directly, or through a set-cover problem

Carlos Perez caught Tyler Skaggs in Spring Training, when Skaggs was familiarizing himself with throwing off a mound in the wake of August 2014 Tommy John surgery. Then Skaggs suffered a setback, was shut down for two months, began building himself back up, and Perez caught him again -- when Skaggs put together back-to-back dominant starts for Triple-A Salt Lake.

7/23/2016 | Shoemaker's losses add up with lack of support

7/21/2016 | Lineup depth fuels Angels' second-half streak
Jefry Marte drove a three-run shot that would power the Angels to a 7-4 win over the Rangers on Wednesday night. It was their sixth win in a row, securing a 6-0 homestand after the All-Star break and just the second perfect homestand of six or more games for the club since 2004.
7/21/2016 | Marte's blast leads Halos to sweep of Rangers

7/19/2016 | Angels visit kids at local children's hospital

The Angels did just that Tuesday afternoon, as second baseman Johnny Giavotella, left-hander Andrew Heaney, catcher Jett Bandy and infielder Gregorio Petit surprised patients at the Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC). It's a monthly tradition for the organization, who frequently makes visits to visit the hospital.

7/19/2016 | Angels' offense clicking since calendar hit July
When Mike Trout's line drive sailed into the bullpen Monday night, it gave the Angels a Major League-leading 95 runs in July, only 15 fewer than what they produced in 13 more games throughout a hapless June. The 9-5 victory it prompted, over the first-place Rangers, was the Angels' eighth over their past 10 games, which followed a 2-12 stretch.
7/19/2016 | Tropeano to have MRI on sore elbow
Angels right-hander Nick Tropeano, whose 3.12 ERA entering Monday's 9-5 Angels win over the Rangers was the best among anyone in the rotation, left with right elbow soreness after throwing just two innings. He will have imaging done Tuesday and be evaluated then, the club announced.
7/18/2016 | Angels must decide whether to deal starters
Starting pitching has been a major issue for the Angels, but it is the department that will garner the most interest from contending teams leading up to the Aug. 1 non-waiver Trade Deadline.

Angels catcher Geovany Soto went on the disabled list again Monday, this time because of an issue with his left knee.
7/18/2016 | Smith's focus on regaining form, not trade talk
When Angels reliever Joe Smith came on to handle the ninth inning of an 8-1 series-finale victory over the White Sox on Sunday, it looked to be an innocuous appearance in a meaningless situation. It was much more than that.
7/18/2016 | Vets Lincecum, Lohse match up in Anaheim
A pair of midseason acquisitions take the mound Tuesday as Angels right-hander Tim Lincecum and Rangers right-hander Kyle Lohse battle in the second game of a three-game set at Angel Stadium.

7/17/2016 | Weaver masterful, 'heading in right direction'
At one point this season, Angels right-hander Jered Weaver joked whether his hardest-thrown pitch was even worthy of being called a fastball anymore.
7/17/2016 | Throw out records when Rangers, Angels meet
The first-place Rangers open a three-game series with the last-place Angels on Monday in Anaheim. But Texas found out before the All-Star break it can't take any team lightly, losing five of seven to the last-place Twins. A.J. Griffin will start for the Rangers opposite Nick Tropeano, whose last victory came against Texas.

And here I thought I had stopped leaking through pads, bras, and shirts! Nope. I woke up so engorged this morning and then because I haven't breastfed or pumped in 3 hours my boobs decided they should leak all over and through my thick bra pads, bra, and shirt. Gah! And here I hadn't leaked through that stuff in close to two weeks now!
Also, does anyone else "squirt"? Whenever my right breast leaks, it squirts...and I'm talking really far (LOL!)

Texans lock up playoff berth with win
Associated Press | Last updated December 02, 2012
The Houston Texans clinched their second straight playoff berth and set a franchise record for wins in a season as they beat the Tennessee Titans 24-10 on Sunday. Rookie linebacker Whitney Mercilus recovered a fumble and had two sacks, and the Texans (11-1) remain tied with Atlanta for the best record in the NFL with their sixth straight win. After needing overtime the past two games, the Texans forced six turnovers they turned into 10 points and had six sacks of Jake Locker when the Texans weren't batting down a handful of other passes. The Texans swept Tennessee (4-8), the team they replaced in Houston, for only the second time. Matt Schaub threw for 207 yards and two touchdowns, and Arian Foster ran for a TD. The Titans debuted new offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains, but they didn't help him out much as receivers dropped repeated balls. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL

For best flavor and texture, serve these dessert squares within 24 hours.
The fruit topping on this dessert is quite thick. Drop it over the cream filling by small spoonfuls, then use a rubber scraper to carefully spread it over filling. It's OK if some of the filling shows through the topping.

"Yet if a woman never lets herself go, how will she ever know how far she might have got? If she never takes off her high-heeled shoes, how will she ever know how far she could walk or how fast she could run?"

In the early 1970s, a woman's role in society was still set by male expectations. While women were expected to work and be educated, it was considered more important that they marry and become housewives. Women were also paid less than men for the same work, and denied many opportunities because they were women.
In 1970, Australian-born author Germaine Greer wrote The Female Eunuch, a book that challenged a woman's...

Innocence and purity wither away in William Shakespeare's Hamlet as the protagonist strives for his revenge, yet wrestles with his past morals and current confusion. However, it is not Hamlet's angst-ridden struggle that is best examined, but rather the slow downward spiral of the female characters, Hamlet's mother and his love interest, who are somewhat neglected in the plot. Queen Gertrude and young Ophelia's loss...

Cherrie's tanager
The Cherrie's tanager (Ramphocelus costaricensis) is a medium-sized passerine bird. This tanager is a resident breeder in the Pacific lowlands of Costa Rica and western Panama. This bird was formerly known as the scarlet-rumped tanager, but was split as a separate species from the Caribbean form, which was itself renamed as Passerini's tanager, Ramphocelus passerinii. While most authorities have accepted this split, there are notable exceptions (e.g. the Howard and Moore checklist).
Cherrie's tanager is very common from sea level to 1,200 m (3,900 ft) altitude, and occurs occasionally up to 1,700 m (5,600 ft). The preferred habitat is semi-open areas including light second growth, woodland edges, gardens and pasture with bushes. The cup nest is built up to 6 m (20 ft) high in a tree. The normal clutch is two pale blue or grey eggs, marked with black, brown or lilac. This species will sometimes raise two broods in a season.
The adult Cherrie's tanager is 16 cm (6.3 in) long and weighs 31 g (1.1 oz). The adult male is mainly black except for a scarlet rump, silvery bill and dark red iris. The female has a grey head, olive upperparts, orange rump, brownish wings and tail, and ochre underparts with a broad orange breast band. The female plumage is the one that differs most from Passerini's tanager. Immatures resemble the adult female, but with a less orange breast.
Cherrie's Tanagers occur in pairs, small groups, or as part of a mixed-species feeding flock, and up to a dozen birds may roost together in dense thickets at night. This species feeds on small fruit, usually swallowed whole, insects and spiders.
The Cherrie's tanager's call is a sharp wac. Its song consists of a few clear pleasant notes, delivered in longer phrases than that of its Caribbean relative.
This bird is called Cherrie's tanager to honor the memory of American naturalist, explorer and adventurer George Cherrie.[2] Dr. Cherrie accompanied former President Theodore Roosevelt in the famous 1913 exploration of the River of Doubt, in the Brazilian amazon basin, which was later named Rio Roosevelt.

What factors led to the "Martian panic" of 1938? Why did many people conclude that an alien spaceship crashed in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947? How do we explain the panic expressed by otherwise normal Southeast Asian men who came to believe that a contagious disease was causing their genitals to shrink, or the frenzied dance manias that captivated thousands of Europeans during the Middle Ages? Bartholomew and Radford show that reality is very much a social construction, that cultural assumptions play a large part in our judgments about what is normal and what is deviant, and that the use of critical reasoning is our best means of ensuring an objective perspective.

Customer Reviews
The best of the best
Congrats! You've stumbled upon what may be the greatest flashcard app and one of the best apps in general. Few developers are as responsive, loyal, and dedicated as this one. While other app makers simply make a version 2 and slap on a new price tag, this one has kept with the times and steadfastly updated. Furthermore, the app itself is powerful and customizable. It may seem a little daunting at first, but it is completely worth it. Best $4 you'll ever spend on the app store.
Update: Still going strong! Please give it a spin and support this awesome developer! You know an app is truly great when the dev himself uses it for his own purposes.
Edit: I see some negative reviews. But reading them, it's easy to deduce that the problems there are user problems and not app problems. 😈😄
Still going strong!
Best ever!
Usually I don't bother to leave comments. But this app is one of my all time favorite! The function is so amazing that no matter how you'd like to use flash cards, you can do it with this app. The only thing I'm not particularly satisfied with is the UI, not beautiful enough.. But that can't stop my love for this fantastic app! ;)

Libertine's Johnson Hartig "understands that nails are the punctuation mark, so he's not afraid for the nails to pop against the clothing. They don't have to blend in and disappear. He deliberately chooses a way for them to stand out," says Heather Davis, CND Libertine team lead.

PD: Girl who fell to death attended party broken up by officers
PHOENIX — An 18-year-old girl who fell to her death Sunday attended a fraternity party that received a citation from officers, police said.
Naomi McClendon was killed after she fell 10 stories about 2:40 a.m. Sunday morning after becoming intoxicated at a party at 1416 S. Jentilly Lane. Police said the party was hosted by Arizona State University students claiming they were part of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity, which is no longer recognized by the university following a series of drinking-related issues.
"They were charging $30 to get in," Tempe Police Sgt. Mike Pooley said. "Once you got in, you were able to drink as much alcohol as you wanted."
Pooley said officers broke up the party after McClendon and her friends had left.
"Our patrol officers got out there and we shut the party down," he said. "We arrested seven underage drinkers from the party and the…ones throwing the party (were cited)."
McClendon was left alone in an apartment by her friends, who believed she was going to sleep. Instead, the Kansas native fell to her death.
As a result of McClendon's death, Pooley said numerous agencies are combining to create a crackdown this weekend.
"We're not going to have leniency this weekend," he said, adding that the plan includes a "very large" DUI task force and an expanded party task force.
But McClendon's death is not the only contributing factor. Police also want to get student behavior under control.
"We do have people continuing to put themselves into these situations," Pooley said. "We have people continuing to provide alcohol to minors. We continue to have people that are letting people binge drink to the point that they don't even know what's going on and people are going to get hurt."
Pooley said more charges may be pending in the case.

Skip to comments.Koran riots prove its time to quit Afghanistan
Posted on 02/24/2012 1:23:24 PM PST by canuck_conservative
.... The huge and outraged protests over the Koran burnings, though, show that all the reconstruction and training we are doing is having little last impact. The Afghans are as wildly fanatical and as far from democracy as they were a decade ago, or nearly so.
.... Rather, our own selfish security interests there are very small now and the amount of time and treasure it would take to lift Afghanistan from where it is now up into the civilized world makes the continued effort unwise.
Do any of the rioters know or care why the Korans were burned? They werent torched out of disrespect for Islam, although Im sure thats what the popular belief is. Taliban detainees at the Bagram base were using the holy books to pass messages back and forth amongst themselves about escape attempts and violence against their guards. As near as I understand Muslim reverence for the Koran, defacng a Koran by writing in it especially messages of violence is as great a defilement of Islams scriptures as burning the book would be. But have any of the rioters gotten hung up on that point?
And where were the fanatics three years ago when the U.S. military burned Bibles? Yes, Christian Bibles were incinerated by the U.S. army in Afghanistan in 2009. The Bibles, printed in Afghanistans two most popular languages, were sent by a church in the States in hopes they would be distributed to Afghan civilians. But military commanders ordered them burned rather than give Muslims the impression NATO forces where there to convert them to Christianity....
We have done what we can to save Afghanistan from itself. Lets now leave those firebombing Western bases and killing Western troops to their own devices.
(Excerpt) Read more at fullcomment.nationalpost.com ...
No, we need to quit Islam all together..
Canadian Forces / NATO ping.
Leaving now hands the whole place back to the Taliban, just as leaving Iraq has allowed Iran to greatly overshadow the Islamic government that was allowed to be voted into power in that country.
The article points out that Yemen is the new launching-ground, with the last 4 major attacks planned from there.
Plus, with Afghanistan, Pakistan is raping us while laughing about it with their Taliban buddies.
True, but so what? Trying to prevent another 9/11 has cost more lives than 9/11 itself. Leave. Let them stew. Kill as many as we can when they try something. Repeat as needed.
Every time I see one of those mobs of vermin I visualize mini-guns pouring streams of justice into those mobs of homosexual pederasts, opium farmers, little girl molesters, wife beaters, and bearded fools.
The true injustice of the world is that this human detritus is allowed to breathe. One day I hope this country has the steel to rectify that situation.
My solution for Afghanistan is pretty simple and will never happen.
It is readily apparent that the Afghans have no desire to live like civilized people in the modern world.
Hence it might be a good idea to give them the world they want to live in. Simply seal off the borders of that joke of a country and then bomb into scrap any vestige of technology. Cell tower- boom. Automobile- boom. Power station- boom. All of it goes bye bye, and they can have their medieval world once more in which to revel in their barbarian life style.
We can go on youtube peeing on dead Taliban faces, but a porta potty rumor about Korans burning sets the whole country off? Whats that BS I smell?
Pakistan is the problem.
They play both sides. Always have and we are too stupid to see it.
Like the Taliban isn't running the place now? They are, to the extent anyone can run that pack of goat herding barbarians. We need to destroy every piece of infrastructure and leave. I give karzai 24 very unpleasant hours until he meets his maker. And that suits me fine.
That would depend what we do as we're leaving. Now if we're nuking and nerve gassing the entire stretch of Pak/Afghan border until nothing's left twitching then I'm fine with it.
Probably a case of "Get out there and riot with enthusiasm, or we'll behead your wife and kids before your eyes, and then you."
I nominate you to go to Afghanistan until it becomes civilized.
No, we need to quit Islam all together..
You can't negotiate with crazy .. they need to die .. all of them.
Afghanistan is a sorry mess whether we stay or go. Primitive savagery is who they are and likely will be for a long time.
Leaving would be a human rights disaster for millions, but we're simply delaying the inevitable.
If we can keep at least 1% of the friends we have made while being there, safely transporting them out of there before they are hunted down and killed will be difficult...Maybe Hillary can fly in and get them.
Let them sink back into the 9th century. Trying to establish a democracy in a mussleman country is like placing a boat in a lake. When you remove the boat the water returns to fill the void.
The best we can do is to contain the mohammedan plague till it devours itself. Unfortunately we are letting this Dark Ages contamination into Western country to our own detriment.
We are in Afganistan because there are bucket loads of strategic resources that EVENTUALLY will come in to play but history shows that it is foolish to be an invader there.(just ask the Russians)
Let the bastards there live in the 6th century, they are not worth our boys and girls lives.
Come on Olog-hai,
Abandoning Mubarak, this whole mooselimb uprising and America abruptly leaving Iraq leaves only one faction to fill the political void. Muslim Brotherhood. Supported by Iran.
Guess them suadi,"royals", are nervous about now!! (GOOD, f-em, most of them deserve to be roasted)
Were we to just leave these mooselimb crazy turds alone the shia and suni probably would just kill off each other.
Thanks for the ping, canuck_conservative
Fair question. I would say that the precedent was set in Iraq; it'd be great to be wrong about that . . .
I know, ultimately it will come to the west, China, and Russia taking a stand against islam.
ah ha ha ha. Ok. this just ain't gonna happen. Too much money to be made.
Time for another crusade??
That's the problem. We don't do that.
This thing was treated as a war when it started, and then we started trying to "Win the hearts and minds of the Afghan people".
Since this IS a war, if we are not prepared to destroy them, they will keep coming back to harm us. Basic logic really, but it seems to elude our governments. It's so frustrating.

Black Orchid
Sarah Jessica Parker in Black Orchid
Sarah Jessica Parker was walking her son James home after a day at school in New York City last month. It's always nice to see celeb mums on the school run, it just proves how normal they are compared to what people think of them.
Sarah was wearing a pair of Black Orchid Mocha Twill skinny jeans with wedges and a loose grey top. I actually love the colour of these jeans, I've always really liked the taupe and mocha shades, they are so casual but they really change an outfit compared to regular blue denim. Buy Black Orchid jeans at Singer22.com.

Halle Berry in Black Orchid
Halle Berry was seen picking up daughter, Nahla, from school before heading to Whole Foods to do some grocery shopping. Later in the week, the two were seen at a local pizza parlor. Halle was set to star in the Broadway show, The Mountaintop, but was replaced by Angela Bassett because she wanted to spend more time in LA with Nahla.
I love Nahla's little overalls! Halle also looked casual in a tee shirt and a pair of her Black Orchid Black Star cut-off shorts in Dust Devil. You can buy these Black Orchid online at Blueheavenboutique.com for $101.

AnnaLynne McCord in Black Orchid
AnnaLynne McCord posed for photos as she arrived at the Artists for Peace and Justice "A Ring to Educate a Child in Haiti" launch event at Vhernier, Beverly Hills in California.
AnnaLynne wore a par of Black Orchid Black Beauty Bell Bottoms in Cyberspace wash with a coral Susie Rose top. I love this top on her, I had no idea it was around $12 and can be bought from Walmart! It looks really good with the jeans. Buy Black Orchid jeans at Singer22.com.

Cindy Crawford in Black Orchid
Cindy Crawford was spotted at Heathrow airport earlier in the week in London, England while wearing Black Orchid's Wide Leg Trouser jeans in Cyberspace wash. Cindy seems to like her flares, she has also worn the High Rise Flare in Sunrise before.
How many of you have tried Black Orchid's flared jeans? I know their skinny jeans are pretty much what made them famous so it will be interesting to see how many people branch out to their flares. I wonder if Halle Berry will? Buy Black Orchid jeans at Singer22.com.

Stimulation of Cytokine Production in Clonal Macrophage and T-Cell Models by Streptococcus thermophilus: Comparison with Bifidobacterium sp. and Lactobacillus bulgaricus
Abstract:The effects of four commercial strains of Streptococcus thermophilus used in yogurt manufacturing on cytokine production were evaluated by using a macrophage model (RAW 264.7 cells) and a T-helper-cell model (EL4.IL-2 thymoma cells) and compared to immunologically active strains of Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Bifidobacterium adolescentis, and Bifidobacterium bifidum. All cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 cells and IL-2 and IL-5 in EL4.IL-2 cells) were affected by heat-killed S. thermophilus in a strain- and dose-dependent fashion. Organisms of all three genera induced significant increases in IL-6 production by the macrophage line ranging from 31- to 192-fold, with S. thermophilus St 133 showing the greatest activity. The four S. thermophilus strains also strongly induced TNF-α production (from 135- to 176-fold). IL-6 and, to a lesser extent, TNF-α production were also increased when the macrophages were costimulated with lipopolysaccharide and cells of the three groups of lactic acid bacteria. Upon concurrent stimulation of EL4.IL-2 cells with phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate, seven of the eight strains displayed significant enhancement of IL-2 and IL-5 production, with S. thermophilus being most effective. Taken together, the S. thermophilus strains stimulated macrophage and T-cell cytokine production to a similar or greater extent than did the species of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. These and previous results lend further support to the contention that lactic acid bacteria, in a concentration-dependent manner, can differentially induce cytokine production in macrophages, but that the effects on T cells required a co stimulatory signal and were less remarkable.

Do I need to get a lawyer for a clearance on a misdemeanor for a bad check that was filed in May 2008?
How long does it stay on a record?
Will it interfere with me getting a new job..I was just laid off
Tax Lawyer
The arrest will stay on your record forever unless you have it sealed or expunged. If you were convicted, then there is nothing you can do about it. If your case was either dismissed or had adjudication withheld, the other options I mentioned may be available to you. Contact a criminal defense attorney to assist you with this.
THESE COMMENTS ARE NOT LEGAL ADVICE. They are provided for informational purposes only. Actual legal advice can only be provided after consultation by an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction. Answering this question does not create an attorney-client relationship or otherwise require further consultation.
Personal Injury Lawyer
Mr Tomas is correct. Unless you get the record sealed, it will remain there forever. If adjudication was withheld, the state permits you to seal the case and, under most circumstances, you may legally deny that the charge ever occurred. Please check my website blog if you have any additional questions or wish to set an appointment at my office in St Petersburg. Good luck
Robert E. Heyman, Esq
Criminal Defense Attorney
I agree with the other gentlemen. The charge will stay on your record forever unless you get it sealed/expunged. It will probably be easier and more effective to hire an experienced criminal defense lawyer to help you with this process.
As far as your new job, that depends on what you are trying to get hired for. Unfortunately, most places do background checks and your arrest may be harmful in getting you a new job. If you should have any other questions on the sealing process, please feel free to call our office or review our website.

Good, it's fixed, I can now relay all my useless information and unimpressive weight lifting triumphs to you all with ease again.
Did back and a tad of shoulders. Military dumbell presses with 85lbers, pretty good stuff. Also did a 300lb lat pulldown twice, which is awesome. Then I watched some tiny girl jump up and do like 10 pullups....this upset me greatly, so I had to make something new. I took the regular 100lb dumbells, and tied 25lb plates to them and used those for shrugs. It's pretty cool to know that I can pick up 125 lbs in each hand.
If any of you guys need to invest in a personal bodyguard...I may start taking requests.

At around 55 days gestation, you need to see the vet for an x-ray to determine the size of the puppies and to find out how many puppies there are. The vet can take measurements at this appointment and can tell you if you can reasonably expect her to give birth naturally or if she will need a c-section.
Let me know if you still have questions.

Don't care for it

I ordered this on a recommendation of a friend, but have to say I was disappointed. I can't feel a difference at all. The New Chapter spoonable probiotic powder is so far the best I have tried out.
No differnce

Expensive product that is supposed to be a best seller. Did not help at all. Have had problems with regularity and this product did nothing to help.
expected faster results
Reviewer1860405により Aug 26, 2008 に掲載
I didn't notice the 'uploading' dosage at the beginning so I will try it a bit longer to see if there are better results.
Nothing special
Reviewer2956356により Apr 24, 2011 に掲載
I didn't see or feel any difference with this product. It is expensive and I know there are other probiotic formulas that are high quality but not as pricy.
not for me
Reviewer2564204により Aug 14, 2011 に掲載
i just tried it and it didn't work. in fact it is to strong for my body, while taking it i had strange disconforts in several parts of the body, and also made worst my insomnia. jarrow formula was better for me, maybe a lighter formula, but it helped better with my constipation.

I could not get used to taking this 1 hour before or 1.5 hours after.Also the shelf life "use by 10-31-16"for a probiotic makes me wonder how fresh is it? DAC
